D/n POV
It's been a repeated cycle. convincing her to take her medication. Sooner or later I won't be close to her home to take care of her, well unless she moves with me. I want her mother to have a break since she's been trying most of her life taking care of M/n, and I think her father would be relieved to have his daughter away from him. I could tell he doesn't want her and it hurts me. I didn't have a father growing up he died because my old home caught on fire and he was trying to save my mother who was pregnant with me at the time. I really wished that M/n's father cared for her more like how I would've wanted my father to do. But m/n's father isn't like that and never will. "D/N!!!" My thoughts scattered. That's when I realized I was going to spend time with M/n today. Shit. "I'm coming!" I yelled as I ran downstairs. As I reached the living room my mother and M/n were sitting down drinking tea.
"Did you forget that we're hanging out today?" I sat down and sighed.
"No. I just forgot what time it was. How was taking your medication today?" She looked surprised.
"What do you mean? It was like usual. Easy." I should've woken up sooner to help her mother but then she'd ask why I was there so early.
She finished her tea.
"Hey why don't we head to your house real quick I think I left something there last night. I had to make a excuse to go back there I wanted to help her mom clean up the mess.
"Eh?! Why didn't you tell me last night when we called! Fineeee let's go. Thank you for the tea ms. L/n." She returned the tea cup and my mother smiled. We then went to her house. As we got there her father was outside on the front porch. Smoking a cigarette.
"Hello sir." Even though I hated how he was I always greeted him politely.
"Mrs. M/L/N? May I come upstairs and help you?" I heard a quiet yes and headed upstairs. She had already cleaned the room but the thing I was going to help her with was her injuries. She had scratches and bruises.
"Thank you for helping. You should've just spent time together today. You do have something important to tell her today." As I cleaned her scratches one by one I answered.
"No, no it's okay I have her distracted by her looking for something even though I didn't leave anything here yesterday. And about the thing thats important yes I plan on telling her that I'm moving to an apartment. But I'm worried that once I move you'll have no time to relax anymore.." I cared for M/n mother her husband was awful and she just dealt with it.
"No no it's okay. You've already done so much. My daughters been happy. It hasn't been that hard." She gave me a pitiful smile.
"Hey D/n? I can't find it." I had finished cleaning her injuries so I headed back downstairs.
"That's alright we'll look for it next time. We should head out now." She grabbed my hand and we headed to
Her favorite café. Though it was her favorite place to snack we hardly went because she had exclaimed she wanted to try new things. As we entered we were able to get her favorite spot, as we sat she started overthinking what she could get. Most things that the café has to offer is mostly sweet based. As the waiter came to take our order m/n had ordered a huge plate of waffles with chocolate drizzle and strawberries, while I only ordered a ice tea. As she spoke about Enji and the stuff they had done before that's when the pressure of telling her I'm leaving hit me. Hell how would she react? I don't know if she likes long distance relationships?! What if she breaks it off as quick as I tell her?! My thoughts started to cause me to tear up.
"Woah.. WOAH! D/n I'm sorry I forgot how much it bothered you when I spoke about Enji but you don't have to cry!" I quickly looked up to a concerned M/n. I started laughing.
"pfft no no! It's not that at all! Haha! I got distracted in my thoughts. What were you saying?" She laughed along after she understood what happened. After she got her food and I got my tea we headed out. The next place we went was her favorite park we usually go there since she loves the scenery time went fast and soon enough it got dark.
"Um m/n I need to tell you something it's important..." she ignored me and continued to take pictures of the sky. All the stars were out and the moon was a crescent.
"M/n... I'm serious" I said as I got closer.
"I heard you the first time give me a sec." My chest tightened the pressure of not telling her was too much to bare and without thinking I yelled it out.
"I'm moving m/n! I've needed to tell you this all day!" She stopped what she was doing and looked at me.
"...are you moving by yourself..? I thought you said your mother doesn't plan on ever moving since your house is close to your fathers cemetery..." sat down on the nearest bench.
"Yeah.. I'm moving by myself. I'm heading to a agency that suits best with my quirk.." I walked slowly towards her. She was facing my direction but her head was down.
"M/n?" I was now in front of her.
"I-I'm trying to figure out if this is a break up or something else.." my eyes widened she thought I was breaking up with her?!
"Woah woah! I'm not breaking up with you! You don't have to worry about that." I knelt down to hold her hands. "I'm just wondering if you want to move in with me or keep a long distance relationship..." her eyes looked like tears could fall down in seconds.
"I don't want you to leave me..." as she whispered her words she tightened her fists which were holding her skirt.
"I don't want to leave you either" she quickly looked at me
"Well then you could've just said move in with me!" She jumped off the bench and hugged me. "Don't make me think something else! I'll pack my things! When are we leaving?" Her hug tightened.
"Hey I have an idea how about we become a duo? Y'know so we can stay together?" Her eyes glistened from the street lamp.
"But we have totally different quirks how can we be a duo?" She quickly responded.
"Sure we don't have to be a duo but I feel like it would be simpler if we were one! Look we could be defense hero's because I'm really quick push them closer to your shadows trapping them until the stronger hero's come. See? We'd make an incredible team! Come on be a duo with me!" She made a fair point and if that's what she wanted to do why would I dare say no to it?
"Alright. Let's be a duo." She looked like she happiest was the happiest person alive. She jumped up and started dancing around. As long as I can keep an eye on her then she would be okay. That's what I thought... why didn't I see the signs earlier? I was naïve. I trusted her I never thought of the plans she had hidden in her demeanor...
m/n POV *after d/n yelling out that he is moving*
I couldn't believe it. Was he moving to get away from me? Did he figure out my plan and now he wants to leave me? He already said he's moving by himself to an agency so is he trying to leave me to focus more?! NO!! He can't leave yet I haven't accomplished my goals with him yet!
"I'm trying to figure out if this a break up or something else.." his expression changed. So he's not breaking up with me good. I want to cry... once he leaves I'll be alone. Enji left to go arrange his marriage with a woman that suits his quirk but me? I'm here ready to have my "lover" break my heart but he's just been wondering how we're gonna handle the relationship. The fool is in love with me. He doesn't want to leave me which is good. I'm playing along. I quickly change my expression and now I'm excited I get to move in with him. I won't have to deal with a destroyed house anymore. Wait no he'd be gone from my grasps once he chooses a different agency from me. No, no, no, No! I can't have that! How can we be in the same team?? I got it! A duo? Now how do I convince him we have to talk different quirks... a defense team? Yes! Perfect a defense team! I quickly told him and he's agreed! Great now I can leave my task with him is now one step closer. His heart is still intact all of my tricks are working... he thinks I'm excited that I can work with him but no. He's wrong. I'm excited because I'll soon shatter him to be nothing but a man who's just deeply in love me that he's never gonna want to leave me. He's gonna believe that I'm still good even with my tantrums. Funny that he thinks I don't remember anything after it.
I'll destroy his heart. All he will think about is me. If I ever have a child he won't care about them! Only how I feel. Should I feel bad? He's a good man who's never done anything wrong. But that's why I have to make him better. He's not good enough..
